DWG files require conversion to DXF format. Use AutoCAD, LibreCAD, or online converters.

Navigation

Drag to pan the view, scroll to zoom in/out. Double-click to fit all entities in view.

Layer control

Toggle individual layers on/off to isolate parts of the drawing. Each layer gets a unique color.

DWG vs DXF

DWG is a proprietary format. This viewer supports DXF (the open interchange format). Convert DWG to DXF using AutoCAD or online tools.

Export options

  • Turn off heavy layers (hatching, dimensions) to speed up rendering on complex drawings.
  • Use the fit-to-screen button to quickly reset the view if you get lost while panning.
  • DXF files in older AutoCAD formats (R12-R14) are the most universally compatible.
  • The viewer is read-only, so you cannot accidentally modify the original file.
  • Browser-based DXF viewing with no AutoCAD license required
  • Layer toggle panel for showing and hiding individual layers
  • Color coding, grid overlay, and multiple background themes
  • Zoom, pan, and fit-to-screen navigation controls
  • Export current view as PNG screenshot
  • Reviewing architectural or engineering drawings without purchasing CAD software
  • Sharing annotated views of floor plans with clients who do not have AutoCAD
  • Checking layer organization and naming in DWG files received from contractors
  • Quickly verifying dimensions on a mechanical drawing during a meeting
The viewer supports DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) files from all common CAD programs including AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and LibreCAD.
No. This is a read-only viewer designed for inspection and review. To edit, open the file in AutoCAD, LibreCAD, or another CAD application.
